System Link User’s Guide

Configuring the Toolbar
System Link provides a customizable toolbar to assist you when performing common tasks.
The toolbar displays just below the menu bar.
By placing a button on the toolbar, you can quickly open the needed window without using
the menu bar and drop-down menus. For example, if you frequently arm and disarm
panels, you could place an Arm/Disarm button on the toolbar.
Some toolbar buttons only display when the panel is open or when you are connected to a
panel. For example, the Arm/Disarm button is not displayed and enabled until you are
connected to a panel. Also, toolbar buttons do not display if the panel does not support
that feature.
Placing Buttons on the Toolbar
To customize your toolbar, open System > Toolbar Configuration. The Toolbar
Configuration window opens. From the Available Menus box, select the menu option
you would like to place on the toolbar. Then press the Add button.
Using the Arm/Disarm example, click the plus sign next to Command in the Available
Menus box. Then select Arm/Disarm and press the Add button.
Arranging the Toolbar
The Toolbar box displays the menu options you have placed on the toolbar. To arrange the
menu options on the toolbar, use the Move Up and Move Down buttons. You can also
use the Separator button to add a separator to group common menu options, such as
Panel Information and Connect.
If you would like to remove a menu option from the toolbar, select the option from the
Toolbar list and press the Remove button.
Displaying the Toolbar
After you have placed the menu options in the Toolbar list, you may customize how you
would like the toolbar to display. Check the Show Toolbar box to display the toolbar.
You may show an image of the menu option by checking the Show Images box.
Select Show Caption to display the menu option name. If you show the images and the
caption, you can select where you want the caption to display. To display the caption
below the images, check the Show Caption Below Image box. If you do not check the
Show Caption Below Image box, the caption displays to the right of the image.
Viewing Diagnostics
The Diagnostics window is primarily used as a tool for diagnosing the system and
communication. This window allows you to view the strings of data that the panel is
sending and receiving from your System Link computer. You may open the Diagnostics
window by selecting System > Diagnostics.
